Did you watch Spence Bundu?

Spence doesn't have the boxing intellect to hang with Keith yet. Although the power is impressive, Spence cannot beat Thurman yet. I have never seen him fight off his back foot. He had never fought somebody that can box from the outside and keep his distance.

Thurman is in a class of his own now.

lmao, Spence solved bundu what are you talking about
he made the adjustments he needed to get to bundu, spence IQ is higher than thurman's
all thurman has decent footwork, but he hasn't fought anybody who can hawk him down, spence can do that, he will have nowhere to go, and his defense is below average to be honest, it will not go pass 6 rounds

Spence destroys Thurman I'll bet any amount of money on t
nobody at 147 can see him, he gonna have to move up to 154 sooner than later
thurman kinda trash to be honest

he made the adjustments he needed to get to bundu

bundu was actually figuring thurman towards the end of the fight and thurman had no answer

Thurman is sloppy as fukk, I don't know how Danny couldn't counter him with that wild ass shyt he be throwing
he must have really been worried about keith's power

There's some room for growth. I think he could learn. There are times where he threw a left hook when he should have jabbed. Things like that. Only thing that cant be helped is movement. His footwork is awful and thats not something easily changed in one camp.

I think the biggest thing with Danny is he's become predictable. His chin and above average IQ are a plus but that footwork of his and speed disadvantage can only be corrected with a 100% emphasis on boxing. 147 is too talented for him not to adjust.

If you have power he respects and above average boxing (Thurman's of the world) he is in trouble. He hits too hard for soft-chinned (Khan types) and boxes too well for power punchers ( Lucas) but the ones who do both well he struggles with.

I don't know why there's this narrative that keith was running and danny was trying hard to make the fight happen. after danny got buzzed a few times, it was pretty obvious he wasn't too eager to exchange anymore. that's why he was only throwing one punch at a time. dude's eyes were glazed from the 2nd round on. I think danny knew he wouldn't be able to take many more of those shots that keith hit him with in the first 2 rounds and he decided to play it safe. keith shook him up good. those first few rounds dictated the entire course of the fight for thurman. he made danny respect his power and he had complete control from that point on. I still don't like the running from keith in the last 2 rounds, but he fought very smart overall.

His nickname One Time almost makes no sense...he's not a KO artist once the level of comp went up he adjusted. He still lunges too much for my liking (someone like Spence or Crawford could "T" him up if doesn't fix it) but he's not some crude power puncher.

One of Thurman's biggest weaknesses that will be exploited if not corrected immediately

Lunging- see :deadmanny: for an immediate fix

Body shots and physical contact. He seems to despise close fighting and body shots.

Anyone who didn't think Thurman would do a little dancing after he saw Lamont Peterson style on Garcia with movement is crazy. Garcia has cinder blocks for feet and can't fight moving forward. And people are angry he didn't stand flat footed and bang for 12 rounds? Why in the world would he if that's one of the few things Garcia does better than him?

I'm not trolling though. I'm genuinely wondering how it's more entertaining. I guess people like what they like.
It's not scripted breh, different category gives different type of entertainment

WWE is like watching a movie and guessing what the script writers will makr as the plot and result

Boxing is like who is actually better out of 2 top athletes where nothing is scripted
